Rapunzel Disorder: Massive Hairball Found Inside A Girl's Stomach!


Did you know that a psychological condition called Rapunzel Syndrome exists? But it does not include a beautiful girl with a long shiny hair like the one in fairy tales. 

This condition is also known as trichophagia which is a disorder that leads the human to eat the hair. It is also associated with another disorder called trichotillomania or another term for a person who could not resist the temptation of pulling out hair.
